Summer Fun Challenge 2021 WIP - Play time

Contests and Challenges

For me Summer  is kids playing outside . Riding bikes, fighting with water guns, swinging as high as you can on the swings. So i will make a scene with kids playing outside.

    The layout is very simple for construction.

    Hey amblender , great to have you take part in this challenge.

    Nice idea for a children's playtime. 

    Good luck.

  • Angela (amblender) replied

    I started the modelling process. During the week i can do only 1h of work each day, so most will be done on the weekend.

    amblender I'm prepping my kids to come and play on your playground 👍, I'm looking FWD to see your entry progress! 

    Time scarcity is a great way to force you to be extra creative in problem solving. 

  • Angela (amblender) replied

    After a few stressful days, i have all of the equipment setup and start with the texture and smaller details tomorrow

    I have more time starting tomorrow, so i hope i finish till next sunday. The first week of the new school year is done and my evenings are free again.

    Your scene is really taking shape now, good job 👍

  • Angela (amblender) replied

    started adding grass

  • Angela (amblender) replied

    The people are finally playing on the playground

  • Angela (amblender) replied

    That is the final for the challenge. 


    It still can be improved, but this is my first big scene. I learned alot. Making Grass, using textures, Lighting and composition. 

    i did not have time to figure out rigging to improve the poses of the people.

    This scene is lovely, I'm so glad you took part in the challenge, and learned so much from the process. You managed to achieve a lot in a short time. Being a big scene and your first time, you done well. It can be daunting, but think of it like a jigsaw, lots of small pieces coming together to create the scene. Great job, I look forward to seeing more big scenes from you, even finishing this one with rigging and posed people if you wanted to. 👍
